Abstract

A foam material made from an organic fiber mixed with water and a polyurethane glue wherein after the mixture solidifies it creates the foam material. The foam material is made by a process comprising the steps of accumulating the organic fiber, grinding the organic fiber into a fibrous material, adding water to the fibrous material to create a slurry, adding the polyurethane glue to the slurry to create a glue mixture, allowing the glue mixture to expand, and allowing the glue mixture to solidify and create the foam material.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A process of making a foam material from an organic fiber comprising the steps of:
 accumulating an organic fiber;   grinding the organic fiber into a fibrous material;   adding water to the fibrous material to create a slurry;   adding a polyurethane glue to the slurry to create a glue mixture;   allowing the glue mixture to expand; and   allowing the glue mixture to solidify and create the foam material.   
     
     
         2 . The process of making a foam material from an organic fiber according to  claim 1 , further comprising the step of placing the glue mixture within a bound structure after adding the polyurethane glue. 
     
     
         3 . The process of making a foam material from an organic fiber according to  claim 1 , further comprising the step of shaping the foam material for use for one of at least construction, packaging, manufacturing and insulation. 
     
     
         4 . A foam material comprising:
 an organic fiber ground into a fibrous mixture;   a portion of water added to the fibrous mixture; and   a polyurethane glue added to the fibrous mixture wherein after the polyurethane glue is added the foam material is formed.   
     
     
         5 . The foam material according to  claim 4 , wherein the organic fiber is cornstalk. 
     
     
         6 . The foam material according to  claim 4 , wherein the organic fiber is hay. 
     
     
         7 . The foam material according to  claim 4 , wherein the organic fiber is straw. 
     
     
         8 . The foam material according to  claim 4 , wherein the organic fiber is wood chips. 
     
     
         9 . The foam material according to  claim 4 , wherein the polyurethane glue is Gorilla Glue®.
